atoms (number boxes)
Number boxes allow you to display numbers or to enter numbers using the mouse and keyboard. When a number arrives at the number box's inlet, it is displayed and sent to the outlet. You can click on a number box and drag upward or downward to change the value continuously.
You can shift-click and drag to change the number by hundredths instead of units. Alt clicking toggles the value between 0 and the last nonzero value.
You can also type in values by clicking and typing a number followed by "enter."
the "set" message sets the number box's value but does not send it to the outlet.
You can set the width of the box by right-clicking and choosing "properties." By default the width is 5 characters. If you select a width of 0, the number box will grow as needed to hold the number--BUT BEWARE, THIS IS EXPENSIVE IN CPU TIME. In a production patch, you'll want to set a specific width.
A width of one gives a clickable toggle switch ala Max:
